Why these fit

These are all purpose-built trolling dredges for creating a squid or bait-school teaser behind the boat. If you’re specifically looking for a squid dredge trolling setup, the 24" x 12" models like Fathom Offshore Double Tier Vivid Glow Pink No Tangle 24" x 12" Squid Dredge and Fathom Offshore Double Tier Vivid Royal Blue No Tangle 24" x 12" Squid Dredge are the strongest offshore options for bigger spreads and pelagic targets.

For smaller center-console boats or simpler handling, the 12" x 12" dredges like Fathom Offshore Double Tier Vivid Pink Glitter No Tangle 12" x 12" Squid Dredge are easier to deploy and retrieve. The Fish Razr Bucket Dredge with (35) Phat Squid is a strong tournament-style choice when you want a concentrated bait-school look and maximum attraction.

Technique notes

Run dredges as teasers, not as hooked baits, and tow them at trolling speed where they can pulse and track cleanly. Keep them far enough back to stay in the prop wash but close enough to create a visible bait cloud in the spread.

Use the no-tangle double-tier models when you expect repeated set-and-retrieve cycles. The 24" x 12" versions are better when you want a bigger visual footprint; the 12" x 12" versions are easier on smaller boats and solo operators.

When to switch

Switch to smaller trolling lures, ballyhoo rigs, or trolling feathers if fish are feeding on individual bait rather than a school profile. If the water is very rough or the spread keeps tangling, a simpler teaser or single lure may be more effective than a dredge.
